Methinks the kids will know it better than the olds, who will be displaced the same way when new technologies emerged, first computers, then the interwebs etc . . .

Only if you don't get ahead of it. 😉
 
Biggest displacement will be drone jobs. If your job requires creativity, independent thought, or physical skills, I think you’re fine.

Sorry cashiers and burger flippers.
 
What is my purpose?

You pass Butter.

The way I see AI taking jobs left and right leads me to believe that it's going to be the beginning of communism. It may get to a point where a huge percentage of jobs have been taken over by AI and now citizens just get a monthly check from the government from AI doing all the work. You can't have a country full of people and have machines do the jobs.

That's not happening.

And then again, it is...

Ever see a car assembly line these days? The freaking robotics are unreal. That's why the fit and finish is Perfect, compared to a 67 Chevelle! 🤣

This is really the question... There will be displaced people with nothing to do... What do we do with them?



But... Keep in mind that the fastest supercomputer in the world (Frontier) is about equivalent to an intelligent human. A human runs on about 20 watts and takes up a very small amount of space compared to said supercomputer:

Which has 64 of these modules and uses 22.7megawatts... 533 of these would consume....

While AI is useful, it's nowhere near the total processing capacity of humanity...

When it's not on TikTok all day :ROFLMAO:

I blame those same kids voting for morons who keep selling us down the river to megacorps and PE firms. Whenever a politician says "this will make sure..." anything, they're just standing up some gov't bureaucracy that only be navigated by an entire compliance team no mom/pop can afford.
 
Don't put em all in the same basket...

There are a number of peeps on here that know my son and daughter, and will tell you how stand up they are! Same with their friends. There are a Ton of good kids out there, but those kids just don't make the news!

My daughters boyfriend was a wild land fire fighter for three years, was a smoke jumper last summer, and is currently looking into law enforcement as a career.

My son is an Eagle Scout...

At a Scout meeting one night, I overheard one kid tell another kid...

This is like a young republicans meeting!!!

Made my heart sing...

I actually have a lot more faith in my (our apparently) kids' generation than I do the 2 previous. Good lord, the butt-hurt is strong with 25-40 year olds.
 
AI gets more interesting the more you learn and play with it...kid stuff.

You remember the world before the internet and then after?

How you did things differently when Smart Phones connected to the internet?

AI has been around a longtime, its development only continues to snowball and now Wireless Transport Speeds, Device Capabilities and the connection between Mobile Phones OS and AI are about to explode...its already happening. The flip is coming.

Thats actually one of my customers, Oak Ridge Lab.

The reason they use computers like this is because the time it takes to perform calculations versus a human performing them. ORNL is a nuclear lab that works more on the scientific side of Nuclear energy versus weapons. I have spoken with many of the data scientist at the labs and they are able to extract data in such a short time by entering the calculations into the super computer to solve.

Yep. Supercomputing can do amazing things.

But to get to the point of performing everything as humanity does in similar form factor: that's a looooong way off.

I agree 100% that AI will always lack the human element, but its scary how close they are getting.

I am in the network connectivity space and I have watched so many Data mining operations being converted to AI Cluster networks.

If your bored lookup how Coreweave bought a massive site from Galaxy Crypto Mining. Its insane the scale that these data centers are built at.
